maybe if someone is kind enough to share an email resort letting them use cocktail hour towards meal and you forward it to veronica then maybe she will have to let you??

I believe I paid 60 for my bridesmaid bouquets and they were yellow roses - if that helps. I can attach pictures if anybody would like

I did not have mine the night before, I had it after the ceremony. I did miss most of it due to pictures, but my family did not. The timing seems to work out. After the ceremony we got any family/group shots done first and then everyone left for the cocktail hour while my husband and I had pictures of just the two of us taken

I would like some advice on music for the ceremony. I am completely clueless! How many songs do I need to choose? Do I have to pick which parts of songs to play? I am using the sound system and need to download some stuff to my ipod. Any advice would be great!

Hey Stoff.. So Veronica has been emailing me like crazy the past couple days probably because, I'm leaving soon. I also got quoted at 100/ for the bridesmaid flowers. If you are emailing I suggest to put your date in the title line. That is what she suggested me to do. Obviously they take the brides that are getting married sooner first.

I was quoted $100 for bridesmaid bouquets as well.  Part of me wonders if it's random - they just choose a price! Haha.

I have a question about pictures: Is it possible to just upgrade the photo package?  For example, right now we have 36 pictures with coverage of the ceremony and picture session after the ceremony (this is what Anel emailed me - with the Love Package).  Let's say this is worth about $500.  If we wanted to upgrade to the package that includes:

 

Full 1 day coverage (Spa, getting ready, ceremony, photo session, cocktail party, reception,

cake cutting) with 100 images 

 

Which costs $999 according to their 2011 Price list - could we just pay the difference ($499 in this example) and have that package?

[ashleybyers]

They told me I had to select a package which I do not understand because I bought the Ultimate package. I ended up having to buy the one day for $999
